Wither
Forward he marches through scornful laughter
Undaunted eyes set on hopes of here after
A gauntlet of piercing stares line his way
And condemning glares say all hate can say
As he strides ever on steps
In time with his hearts rhythm and rhyme
To the end of his day
Forever seductive smile shatters sense
And bids him acquiesce from this solitary life
But we don't see
We've made ourselves blind
And we don't care
We've closed our minds
And we don't move
We're so paralyzed
And we, we sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
And we don't see
We've made ourselves blind
And we don't care
We've closed our minds
And we don't move
We're so paralyzed
And we, we sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
Dead to immunity, dead to society
Fearing the slow decay of dignity
The poster child for walking dead men
Longs for the now to be way back when
As he strides ever on steps
In time with his hearts rhythm and rhyme
To the end of his day
Forever seductive smile shatters sense
And bids him acquiesce from this solitary life
But we don't see
We've made ourselves blind
And we don't care
We've closed our minds
And we don't move
We're so paralyzed
And we, we sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
And we don't see
We've made ourselves blind
And we don't care
We've closed our minds
And we don't move
We're so paralyzed
And we, we sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
And I see him everyday along his road
Fading away manifest in the downcast
Recluse and outcast lepers of this age
The innocent in cage by paranoid, misinformed minds
Enter the champions of love so called singing loud
Grinning as they spit out their words, so proud
Hearts unmoved by songs and ideals?
Wading through the rhetoric to clutch something real
Don't see
We've made ourselves blind
Don't care
We've closed our minds
Don't move
We're so paralyzed
We sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
Don't see
We've made ourselves blind
Don't care
We've closed our minds
Don't move
We're so paralyzed
We sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
Undaunted eyes set on hopes of here after
A gauntlet of piercing stares line his way
And condemning glares say all hate can say
As he strides ever on steps
In time with his hearts rhythm and rhyme
To the end of his day
Forever seductive smile shatters sense
And bids him acquiesce from this solitary life
But we don't see
We've made ourselves blind
And we don't care
We've closed our minds
And we don't move
We're so paralyzed
And we, we sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
And we don't see
We've made ourselves blind
And we don't care
We've closed our minds
And we don't move
We're so paralyzed
And we, we sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
Dead to immunity, dead to society
Fearing the slow decay of dignity
The poster child for walking dead men
Longs for the now to be way back when
As he strides ever on steps
In time with his hearts rhythm and rhyme
To the end of his day
Forever seductive smile shatters sense
And bids him acquiesce from this solitary life
But we don't see
We've made ourselves blind
And we don't care
We've closed our minds
And we don't move
We're so paralyzed
And we, we sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
And we don't see
We've made ourselves blind
And we don't care
We've closed our minds
And we don't move
We're so paralyzed
And we, we sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
And I see him everyday along his road
Fading away manifest in the downcast
Recluse and outcast lepers of this age
The innocent in cage by paranoid, misinformed minds
Enter the champions of love so called singing loud
Grinning as they spit out their words, so proud
Hearts unmoved by songs and ideals?
Wading through the rhetoric to clutch something real
Don't see
We've made ourselves blind
Don't care
We've closed our minds
Don't move
We're so paralyzed
We sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
Don't see
We've made ourselves blind
Don't care
We've closed our minds
Don't move
We're so paralyzed
We sit in heartlessness
Watching him die
